Ferguson insists: I want my Man Utd record to be beaten

Sir Alex Ferguson insists he wants someone to better his record as Manchester United manager.

The Scot is the most successful of all time.

But he insisted to the Sunday Mirror: "We had a wonderful run of success when I was here and we won a lot of trophies.

"But I really hope s­omeone comes along and breaks my record here, I really do.

"I'd like to see another United manager come in and win 45 ­trophies in 25 years. Nothing would make me happier.

"Why? Because it's a food chain at this club. First there was the great Sir Matt Busby and then there was me.

"Now I'd love someone else to come in and establish a long run of success because that's what this club is all about."
